I'd have to check on that, but databeestje would be the one to ask. Time permitting, he keeps an eye on this forum, though he has not been around much lately (on vacation and other personal things going on).

I believe in part that is due to the gif setup quirks there. It reports that in ifconfig because that's what the gif setup does, but having the interface assigned causes a _different_ ifconfig setting to run, which could clobber the gif's settings if it was improper.

I will when I get home, don't want to break it or even reboot it while remote unless really had too Im no coder but what I can make of it it does not seem to really have any impact on anything other than what is displayed.

I will give it a test when I get home and report back.
